8 December 2009 - SPM is finally over, gone, disappeared, vanished, out of sight, down, cleared! I can't imagine it ended so fast, too fast that I did not even realise it ended today. Right after the last paper, an empty feeling suddenly striked my mind.'' This is the last day of schooling where you will be wearing your school uniform ''
To make things simpler, I decided to break down my post to 5 main parts. Viewer discretion is advised to prevent any eye-sore or time-consuming for this long-winded post of mine.
The Cancerian Personality
Only by that time a smile scratch my face as I walked passed the heavenly stairs towards the ground floor. I did not even grab the chance to bit farewell to some of my teachers, teachers that really care for the students and hope that they will excel in the respective subjects. And now here am I missing them for some of their boring lessons which will be more interesting if I would have pay more attention to them. The end of secondary life means no more wearing green pants, no more childish act, no more care-free attitute maybe, and most importantly, no more Sejarah!
SPM Showdown
I am quite happy at the beginning of this exam when I saw the first karangan question which the topic is so wide and so many points to write about. This indicates that my exam have a very good start and
If you were to ask me again how many subjects I was taking, I will tell you the same answer again and again. Compared to most of my friends from other schools, I can be considered taking the least subject for SPM - 9. It's the school system, don't ask me. It is most probably because the number of subjects are not important but the subjects themselves are vital to determine your direction after SPM. What's the use of taking 20 subjects with all those easy-to-score Islamic subjects that are similiar to one another? Furthermore, 10 subjects are the limit for those taking SPM starting from next year.
Its has been more than 5 times since I dreamt about my SPM. The condition inside the hall, the result day, and the most terrible one - how I missed two of my papers in one day. BM and Mathematics were on the same day in my fantasy world. And I keep on blaming my friends for not reminding me, my parents who doesn't realise my exam date. I was struggling to call the school office to ask whether the exam can be replaced to some other date or not. Of cause they can't, because the whole nation start and end at the same time. I'm glad that I have woke up from those terrible nightmares. This shows that I'm so irresponsible, careless, naive, and being irrational in my dream land. However, it is vice versa and does not affect me throughout the 4 long weeks in reality.
Okay okay. Let's back to the topic. Everyone were so tension and some of them almost crack their skulls at the beginning of the exam. However, situation was getting better as time passes and the pressure was less applied to them. For me, it's just the same and every papers count. I can't afford to distract my attention to elsewhere and crying over the spilt milk later. I am quite satisfied because I have done my best, unlike my trial results which is an eye-sore.
What am I aiming for my results? Surprisingly I did not target or expect any A's in my result after my trial results disappointed me. That's why I have set a new aim, that is...
Aim: Pass all my subjects
Condition: With flying colours
Irony: You either know or doesn't know what it means
The Next Chapter
The 2-year SPM syllabus which is not easy to cover up has reached its finale here. What have you learned or wasted in this 2 short years is all sum up. I firmly believe that the result day is the judgment day. There will be total fairness. So what's my plan after SPM? Most probably will be studying form 6 in my alma mater unless my matriculation application succeed. After that? Waste no time and pursue my studies to local college, or maybe somewhere else.

Simple Plan
While waiting for my result, I decided to relax for the month to be jolly and maybe find some work elsewhere to utilize my time effeciently. It is going to be a long time until next March to decide my fate. Undang test, driving license? All cramped out in my tiny brain all at the same time. Hang out with friends? Holidays with family? It's all going to be packed up this month. So I need to be doing something useful and not to waste my precious time.
Golden Words
Whoever or whatever you are, thanks for reading my long-winded extraordinary blog post of the month. I like to blog about almost everything or every event that comes into my life. This will serve as a diary for me to glance back in the far future. For those who have yet to take your SPM or going to engage to it next year, you still have a long way to go. The main element for my principle is very simple, just pay 100% to the lesssons in school and you will definitely not going to lose out. Last-minute studying or burning midnight oil? you will gain nothing except for some headache and extra pressure in yourselves. That's all from this post, stay tuned for more updates @ ivantan5.blogspot.com
Representatives from various colleges and universities were invited to brief the form 5 too. For my class, we have taken lots of pictures as memories in our beloved alma mater for 5 years.
